Jawline Slimming Botox in Jamsil, Seoul
The short answer
Jawline slimming botox at Shinebom Clinic in Jamsil, Seoul relaxes the masseter, the chewing muscle at the angle of the jaw, so an enlarged muscle can gradually slim and the lower face looks softer. It suits a square jaw caused by muscle, not bone, and the doctor confirms the cause first. A touch-up is available within one month.
Key facts
- Target: the masseter muscle at the jaw angle
- Suits: a square jaw caused by muscle, not bone
- Effect: gradual slimming as the muscle relaxes
- Diet note: avoid tough, chewy food afterward
- Touch-up: within 1 month if needed
Why does the jaw look square?
A wide lower face has two possible causes: the bone or the masseter muscle. Clenching, grinding and a chewy diet can enlarge the muscle. Botox only works on the muscle part, so the doctor feels and assesses the jaw before suggesting it. If bone is the main factor, botox may not give the change you expect.
How does it slim the face?
The product reduces the muscle's activity. With less use, the muscle gradually becomes smaller, and the lower face typically looks narrower over a few weeks. The result is temporary and the treatment can be repeated. See the square jaw concern for more context.
What is the procedure?
- Consultation and muscle assessment.
- Numbing cream or icing, if you prefer.
- Injections into the masseter, placed according to your anatomy.
- Aftercare guidance.
Shinebom Clinic uses genuine product at the full stated dose and rules out overdone treatment.
What should you do afterward?
- Wash and wear makeup right away.
- Avoid tough, chewy food after jaw botox.
- No pressing or deep massage for 1 week; avoid heavy drinking, sauna and hard exercise for 1 week.
Small bruises fade in days, and temporary stiffness is normal. Full guidance is in the botox aftercare guide.
Is it the only way to refine the jawline?
For a sagging jawline, consider thread lift or a lifting device. For a soft chin or jaw edge, see chin and jawline filler. Tell the doctor about pregnancy, jaw joint problems or neuromuscular conditions. Back to all botox treatments.
